Stephan Goetschius, video

Stephan Goetschius is in some ways the new face of wood turning. He was trained in art school as both a traditional furniture maker and as a sculptor working with metal and a variety of other materials and tools. He rejects labels and moves easily from making functional objects to creating completely sculptural art work.

He took advantage of the freedom offered to residents of the International Turning Exchange, and created a new series of wood sculpture unlike anything he did before. In the video he talks about how his work evolved, spirituality and his love of wood.
